Services

[Amazon ElastiCache](https://aws.amazon.com/elasticache/) for Valkey now features ElastiCache Insights, a pre-built dashboard in Amazon CloudWatch for your node-based clusters. ElastiCache Insights brings cluster health, memory, compute, network, command throughput, latency, keyspace, and errors into a single view sourced from a set of OpenTelemetry metrics that ElastiCache publishes automatically. You can use ElastiCache Insights to check the health of your cache workloads across a Region at a glance, detect when a node nears its memory, network, or connection limits, and filter your view to a cluster, shard, node, or Availability Zone. You can also save a copy as the starting point for a custom dashboard tailored to your workload. With detailed monitoring, you can choose metrics to publish every 15 seconds and view them on the Metrics tab or in your custom dashboard. [CloudWatch pricing for OpenTelemetry metrics](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing/) applies to ElastiCache detailed monitoring. To get started, open the Metrics tab for a cluster in the [Amazon ElastiCache console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/elasticache/) and choose View in ElastiCache Insights. You can also choose ElastiCache Insights under Infrastructure Monitoring in the Amazon CloudWatch console. ElastiCache Insights is available for node-based Valkey clusters in all AWS Regions where Amazon CloudWatch supports OpenTelemetry metrics. To learn more about ElastiCache Insights, see [Monitoring ElastiCache with OpenTelemetry metrics](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/dg/otel-metrics.html#otel-metrics.insights-dashboard) in the Amazon ElastiCache User Guide.
